If Shambo flips, its 5-5.If Foa Foa finds the idol, it will be the “Foa Foa” idol and whoever is targeted by Galu will use the idol and a Galu member will be sent home. The three keys to this plan are: 1. Getting Shambo 100% with Foa Foa 2. Foa Foa finding the idol 3. Shambo being able to find out who Galu is voting for and telling Foa Foa so they can wisely play the idol and vote out a Galu member

Perfect Plan:Shambo finds the idol, and she shows it to everyone on Galu (even though she is secretly with Foa Foa). Galu feels security with her and automatically trust her because she has the idol. She is now more in the loop than she ever was. She finds out who Galu is planning to vote out from Foa Foa, she gives the idol to that person, the vote is 5-5 at tribal (Foa Foa and Shambo voting for a Galu member, and Galu voting for a Foa Foa member.) The idol is played by Foa Foa and a Galu member goes home, making 5-4 in favor of the alliance of Russel, Natalie, Jaisan, Mick and Shambo. Now just make sure Shambo doesn’t flip back.

(This is perfect except she wouldnt need to vote with the Foa Four!)

Me thinks one of the Galu makes a deal with FF...I'm thinking Brett. Did you notice Brett didn't have a reaction when Russell played the idol? Did anyone notice Brett was on the losing team for the reward challenge? Is this where finally Brett plays the game?

It could be one of the more physically strong males on Galu flipping to Foa Foa with Shambo. I don't think it's Brett because he's forever so quiet. I won't even be surprise if he's going next because like Kelly, he has only one confession thus far. I think it might be John flipping over and voting out either Laura/Brett or Dave.

Here's what missyae (who has been relatively accurate regarding spoilers) has to say about next week's episode:

Quote

That last episode was really emmy worthy but wait till this week. I guess I found an interview with the boot in it or I guess I am copying someone else again so here is what you need this week. Many would think this immunity challenge might be right up The Strategic Ones alley but it did not turn out that way. If it were baseballs being tossed - maybe - but not those little rock shaped thingys. However someone else from Foa Foa steps up and wins immunity this week. The lines are drawn in the sand at tribal council. We had 5 strong on each side - or do we? After the tie vote someone on Galu decides they dont wanna be at risk and they change their vote on the second vote. You dodged twice Laura but you did not win immunity this week and now you are gone!

REWARD CHALLENGE: None seen yet - Monica/John/Shambo/Mick/Natalie win So who wins? As smokeitgood notes at Sucks, the scenes of Russell running around madly, tailed by Dave and Laura, were likely while the others were away on reward (exactly as in Ep9). Since Russell, Jaison, Dave, Laura and Brett are shown back on the island, that would imply the winners of the still-unseen RC are the group of: Monica, John, Shambo, Mick and Natalie.

IMMUNITY CHALLENGE: Smashing plates/crossbow archery - Jaison wins?.

Update: missyae posts at Blows that the IC winner is someone from Foa Foa not named Russell. Assuming (again, since we've still only seen one challenge as of the day of the show) that this is IC, we'd therefore guess that it's Jaison, who's the only other Foa Foa shown actively competing.

BOOT: Laura

Update: missyae is correct in stating that Laura is this week's boot (with the additional detail of "After the tie vote someone on Galu decides they dont wanna be at risk and they change their vote on the second vote.").
